In the event that a situation would become unsafe abroad, does St. John’s University have a contingency plan in place?
Yes, we are committed to operating safe study abroad programs and therefore security is our priority. The Office of Global Studies and our on-site staff and liaisons make every reasonable effort to monitor the safety of the programs and their students. One of the resources used can be found on the U.S. State Department’s website (http://travel.state.gov), which we would encourage you to look at. If a situation would arise, our Emergency Response Team would decide what action should be taken.
